“Very fun (and easy) to build.
The power button was missing, but it was delivered just in time for the long St Patrick weekend.
To be able to control a Raspberry PI via console buttons is awesome, and having a console with a stick and buttons resistant to Street Fighter-like games powered by a raspberry is incredible!”
“Another great product from Pimoroni. I had a Picade and wanted to have a console plugged o. TV in HD with a Pi 5 , NVME Base and player X inside. It works like a charm.”
“Instructions were clear (online only though but great with a nearby tablet).
Parts were nicely cut and fit together great. Bit of a squeeze to fit all the wires inside but it all worked first time.
What a great little idea :)”
“I am super happy with this kit! It was a joy to make and it works great with my pi 3b+. The volume of the speaker required a little research to to find out how to change and this is something that could be added to the instructions quite easily I'm sure. Absolutely love this little kit and already planning some extension USB port sockets as an upgrade”
“Superbly machined, high-quality parts and very attractive once made. My son and I had great fun making it, and he is going to very much enjoy coding some old-school arcade games to play on it.
My only slight criticism was that there was no assembly manual in the box, so we had to look that up online. However, the online manual from Pimoroni was excellently written and very easy to follow.”
